Sketches in Holland and Scandinavia

Augustus J. C. Hare

PREFACE.

THE slight sketches in this volume are only the result of ordinary tours in the countries they attempt to describe. Yet the days they recall were so delightful, and their memory - especially of the tour in Norway - is so indescribably sunny, that I cannot help hoping their publication may lead others to enjoy what is at once so pleasant and so easy of attainment.
